unplugging EBPV?

Can I simply unplug the EBPV sensor to disable the EBPV? I can't stand it in the morning, it doesn't do me and good and instead of pulling the turbo out or wiring it off Id rather do something simpler and cleaner.

Thanks

Yes. Just unplug it. I've had mine unplugged for a couple of winters now with no negative effect. No CEL light, no nothing.

I was glad I pulled everything out....gave me the chance to see that the turbo needed cleaning which was making the valve stick , & I had exhaust donuts to replace, swhile doing that I GUTTED the pedestal, I didn't want the plug just hanging & also wanted the option to put it back if I need too.

easiest way to unplug it is from the air box, theres a temp sensor there, it wont operate without it, and it wont set a code
